Swedish national regulator for pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and cosmetics
Läkemedelsverket is Sweden's national medicines and medical products authority, operating under the Ministry of Health and Social Affairs with a 501–1,000 person workforce. The tech stack centers on Oracle (APEX, Database, REST Data Services) paired with .NET and Angular frontends, complemented by UiPath automation and Azure DevOps—a pattern typical of large government agencies managing legacy regulatory systems while modernizing digital touchpoints. Active hiring across healthcare, engineering, and legal roles, with a Test Lead position newly opened, suggests the agency is scaling both investigative capacity and test automation maturity to handle rising compliance and adverse-effect monitoring workloads.
